favorite foods luncheon

have to share this ...

this past week henry had his favorite foods luncheon at school ... each child brings his/her favorite food and shares with everyone during a group lunch in the fellowship hall.  I asked henry what he would like mommy to make/bring for the luncheon.

he replied, "cupcakes."
I said, "sounds good.  anything else?"
H: "goldfish."
me:  "anything else?"
H: "apples."
me:  "okay-anything else?"
H:  "sesame sticks."

the next morning I queried him to see what his response would be ... the same, different, who knows.

me:  "henry, what would you like mommy to make for the luncheon?"
H:  "everything I reported yesterday."
pbbtttt haaaaaaaaaa!  I burst into laughter ... hilarious answer! 

so there you have it, everything he reported yesterday.

captain destructo

so gary affectionately calls owen "captain destructo," which is funny if you know owen (he really is captain destructo ... strong, determined, and will tear up something as fast as you can say owen).  owen is so sweet and so good, but is most definitely captain destructo.  what is also humorous is to hear his older brother refer to him as "captain destructo" as well.  something about hearing a three year old say, "oh captain destructo, you tore that up," puts a smile on your face. ha!

a few weeks ago owen found a roll of small waste basket trash bags in his closet and decided to explore each one.  each one ... and we mean each one.  we were also trying on a new swimsuit for O and someone gave him his papsy, which he normally only has during nap and bed time.  he also had on cute airplane shoes that were a sweet gift from great aunt mary.  this made for an interesting outfit and then certainly an interesting room, with many, many trash bags all over the place.  henry thought this was hilarious and played "monkey" with the whole shebang; complete with monkey walk and the ooh ooh and ahh ahhs. 

needless to say it was a memorable moment.  funny little guys!
